...issue, and not only because of the power of images and stereotypes in American's media-dominated culture. In Indian traditions, words and images not only represent but also embody the spiritual power of what they depict. This has often been compared to the way Catholics think of the bread and wine in the Communion service...

Georgia became isolated from the other republics, especially Russia, the region's primary supplier of bread and fuel.

The shock-therapy program will be under pressure to show some quick results, or popular unrest could grow. An elderly woman begging on a Moscow street corner last week cried, "Please give me some money. I cannot even afford to buy bread now." Yeltsin has given the Russians pain; now he must deliver the gain...
